An extraordinary journey of endurance, loss, and hope.

Directed by Nigel Morgan, Pilgrim of the Tides is a powerful short documentary that captures Mike's 2024 summer expedition in his distinctive THINK AORTA branded kayak. Facing some of the world's most formidable tides, Mike's voyage becomes more than a physical challenge; it's a heartfelt tribute and a call to action for a cause close to his heart.
"This epic journey sees Mike and his family battle a ticking clock, towering waves, rough seas, and raw grief as they seek to raise awareness that will save others from suffering the loss that they endured."
